Required foreign exchanges will be allowed to send to the Bangladeshis facing travel disruptions abroad due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The facilities will be in force until June 30 for Bangladeshis now staying abroad for travel, treatment and study purposes.

A Bangladesh Bank circular issued by its Foreign Exchange Policy Department said Authorized Dealers (ADs) have been allowed to release foreign exchange for Bangladesh nationals visiting abroad and facing travel disruptions due to COVID-19 pandemic for returning home.

It further said the facilities shall continue until June 30 based on the actual needs of the persons concerned to facilitate the transactions on behalf of Bangladesh nationals visiting foreign countries which are under lockdown due to COVID-19 pandemic.

To facilitate health insurance for students having no coverage or with limited coverage, ADs can remit medical expenses to students concerned requiring emergency treatment.

In this context, ADs shall release foreign exchange based on the estimates supported by certificate of medical professionals from the country where students reside, it added.
